I stayed by myself last year but this time I stayed with my son. Room was large enough for 2 adults. Close to Himeji Castle and many restaurants. It was very convenient.

Nice and clean room. Lots of free streaming on the tv. Small bathroom. The temperature was awful, like 25C because you can't control the AC. The beds were very soft, which we do not prefer at least, but that is subjective.

Really good property, standard APA Hotel room. Very spacious and roughly a 6 minute walk from the main Himeji station. Good for solo travelers and dual travelers. Solo travelers can fit their check in, carryon and personal here. Two people can, but if they pack a tad lighter.
